All ready to go; about the only things left to do are flip the breaker for the water heater (did you know they can explode?) and shut off the water. Preferably after my morning shower. I’m excited but have more mixed feelings about this trip than I ever have before. I think it’s because many of my previous big adventures have been as much about escaping my reality as they were about going somewhere else geographically. At the moment, I kinda like my reality (if it even qualifies as such, given how much time I spend in worlds of my own creation) so I’ll miss much of it. That’s probably a good sign, huh?
